Yuletide: A Very Black Winter

The holidays were never meant to be safe.

In the longest nights of winter, old traditions stir, familiar songs turn strange, and the warmth of home hides something waiting just beyond the firelight. Across these pages, holiday rituals become bargains, gifts come with terrible prices, and the dead are not always willing to stay gone.

Yuletide: A Very Black Winter gathers twenty-five tales of holiday and winter horror, spanning folklore, supernatural dread, grotesque pulp, dark comedy, and psychological terror. Cruel, strange, and unsettling, these stories may make you look twice at the empty chair, or the tracks outside your door.

This year, keep the home fire burning.

And when something starts scratching at the walls, do not let it in.
